< U-Ezra 10 >
1 Kwathi uEzra esakhuleka esavuma, ekhala inyembezi eziwisela phansi phambi kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, kwabuthana kuye ibandla elikhulu kakhulu lamadoda labesifazana labantwana, livela kuIsrayeli, ngoba abantu bakhala inyembezi ngokukhala okukhulu.
A PAU ka Ezera pule ana, a me ka uwe ana, a me ka moe ana imua o ka hale o ke Akua, hoakoakoaia ae la io na la he anaina kanaka nui loa o ka Iseraela, na kane, me na wahine a me na kamalii; no ka mea, he nui loa ka uwe o na kanaka.
2 UShekaniya indodana kaJehiyeli owamadodana kaElamu wasephendula wathi kuEzra: Thina siphambukile kuNkulunkulu wethu, sathatha abafazi bezizweni abavela ezizweni zelizwe; kodwa khathesi kukhona ithemba koIsrayeli mayelana lalokhu.
A olelo mai o Sekania ke keiki a Iehiela, no na mamo a Elama, i mai la ia Ezera, Ua hana hewa makou i ke Akua, a ua lawe makou i na wahine e no na kanaka o ka aina: aka ano, he manaolana no iloko o ka Iseraela no keia mea.
3 Ngakho-ke asenze isivumelwano loNkulunkulu wethu ukuze sikhuphe bonke abafazi lokuzelwe yibo ngokweseluleko senkosi yami lesabathuthumela emlayweni kaNkulunkulu wethu; kakwenziwe-ke ngokomlayo.
Ano hoi, e hoohiki kakou i ko kakou Akua e hookuke aku i na wahine a pau, a me na mea a lakou i hanau ai, e like me ke ao ana a kuu haku, a me ka poe e makau ana i ke kauoha a ko kakou Akua; a e hanaia ia mea ma ke kanawai.
4 Sukuma, ngoba udaba luphezu kwakho, lathi silawe. Qina, wenze.
E ku ae oe, no ka mea, ia oe no keia mea: o makou pu kekahi me oe; e ikaika oe, a e hana.
5 Wasesukuma uEzra, wafungisa induna zabapristi, amaLevi, loIsrayeli wonke, ukuthi benze ngokwalelilizwi. Basebefunga.
Alaila ku ae la o Ezera, a hoohiki aku la i na kahuna nui, i na Levi, a me ka Iseraela a pau, e hana lakou e like me keia olelo. A hoohiki iho la lakou.
6 UEzra wasesukuma esuka phambi kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, waya endlini kaJehohanani indodana kaEliyashibi; wathi efika lapho kadlanga sinkwa kanathanga manzi, ngoba elilela ububi babathunjiweyo.
Alaila ku ae la o Ezera mai ke alo mai o ka hale o ke Akua, a komo iloko o ke keena o Iehohanana ke keiki a Eliasiba; a hiki aku ia ilaila, aole ia i ai i ka ai, aole hoi i inu i ka wai; no ka mea, uwe iho la ia no ka hewa o ka poe pio i hoi mai.
7 Basebesenza isimemezelo sedlule koJuda leJerusalema kubo bonke abantwana bokuthunjwa ukuthi babuthane eJerusalema,
A hai aku la lakou ma Iuda, a ma Ierusalema i ka poe pio a pau e honluulu lakou ma Ierusalema;
8 lokuthi loba ngubani ongafikanga ngensuku ezintathu, ngokweseluleko seziphathamandla labadala, impahla yakhe yonke izadliwa, yena ehlukaniswe lebandla labathunjiweyo.
A o na mea a pau i hele ole mai i na la ekolu, e like me ke kauoha a na luna, a me ka poe kahiko, e hoolaaia kona waiwai a pau, a e hookaawaleia oia mai ko anaina kanaka aku o ka poe pio i lawe pio ia aku.
9 Wonke amadoda akoJuda loBhenjamini asebuthana eJerusalema ngensuku ezintathu. Kwakuyinyanga yesificamunwemunye ngolwamatshumi amabili lwenyanga. Bonke abantu basebehlala egumeni lendlu kaNkulunkulu beqhaqhazela ngenxa yaloludaba langenxa yezulu elikhulu.
Alaila hoakoakoaia ae la na kanaka a pau o ka Iuda, a o ka Beniamina i Ierusalema i na la ekolu, i ka iwa o ka malama, a i ka la iwakalua o ka malama; a noho iho la na kanaka a pau ma ke ala o ka hale o ke Akua, e haalulu ana no keia mea, a no ka ua nui.
10 UEzra umpristi wasukuma wathi kibo: Lina liphambukile lathatha abafazi bezizweni, ukwandisa isiphambeko sikaIsrayeli.
Ku ae la o Ezera ke kahuna, a olelo aku la ia lakou, Ua hana hewa oukou, a ua lawe i na wahine e, e hoomahuahua i ka hala o ka Iseraela.
11 Ngakho-ke yenzani uvumo eNkosini uNkulunkulu waboyihlo, lenze intando yayo, lizehlukanise lezizwe zelizwe, lakubafazi bezizweni.
Ano hoi, e hai aku oukou ia Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe makua, a e hana i kona makemake; a hookaawale oukou ia oukou iho mai na kanaka o ka aina aku, a mai na wahine e aku.
12 Ibandla lonke laseliphendula lathi ngelizwi elikhulu: Njengamazwi akho, ngokunjalo kuphezu kwethu ukuthi sikwenze.
Alaila olelo mai la ka ahakanaka a pau, i mai la me ka leo nui, E like me kau olelo, pela makou e hana aku ai.
13 Kodwa abantu banengi, njalo kuyisikhathi sezulu elinengi, njalo singeme phandle. Futhi kakusimsebenzi wosuku olulodwa njalo hatshi owezimbili, ngoba sibanengi esiphambukileyo kuloludaba.
Aka, ua nui na kanaka, a he manawa ua nui, aole e hiki ia makou ke ku mawaho, a o ka hana, aole ia no ka la hookahi, aole no na la elua; no ka mea, ua nui na mea o makou i hana hewa ma keia mea.
14 Ake zime iziphathamandla zethu zebandla lonke, labo bonke abasemizini yethu abathethe abafazi bezizweni beze ngezikhathi ezimisiweyo, njalo kanye labo abadala bomuzi ngomuzi labahluleli bawo, size sidedise ukuvutha kolaka lukaNkulunkulu wethu mayelana laloludaba.
Ano hoi, e hoonohoia na luna o ka ahakanaka a pau, a o na mea a pau ma ko kakou mau kulanakauhale i lawe i na wahine e, e hele mai lakou i ka manawa maopopo, a me lakou pu no na lunakahiko o kela kulanakauhale keia kulanakauhale, a me na lunakanawai ona, a e hoohuli ae i ka inaina o ko kakou Akua mai o kakou aku no keia hewa.
15 NgoJonathani indodana kaAsaheli loJahazeya indodana kaTikiva kuphela abamelana lalokho; loMeshulamu loShabethayi umLevi babancedisa.
O Ionatana wale no, ke keiki a Asahela, a o Iahazia ke keiki a Tikeva i noho no keia mea, a o Mesulama, a me Sabetai ka Levi, i kokua mai ia laua.
16 Abantwana bokuthunjwa besebesenza njalo. UEzra umpristi, amadoda, inhloko zaboyise ngendlu yaboyise, labo bonke ngamabizo, basebesehlukaniswa; basebehlala ngosuku lokuqala lwenyanga yetshumi ukuhlola loludaba.
A hana aku la pela ka poe pio i hoi mai. A o Ezera ke kahuna, me na kauaka koikoi o na makua, no ka hale o ko lakou mau makua, o lakou a pau ma ko lakou inoa i hookaawaleia, a noho iho la lakou i ka la mua o ka umi o ka malama e hookolokolo ai i keia mea.
17 Basebeqeda lawo wonke amadoda ayethethe abafazi bezizweni kwaze kwaba lusuku lokuqala lwenyanga yokuqala.
A hoopau lakou me na kanaka a pau i lawe i na wahine e, i ka la akahi o ka malama mua.
